Quote by Albert Brooks
By the way, movies are like sporting events in that youre as good

By the way, movies are like sporting events in that youre as good as the movie youre in. You can sit in a room for 20 years and go do a movie and you can just kill in it and you move to the head of the line again. By the same token, you can do five movies a year and if theyre dreck, its nothing. – Albert Brooks
